Also, for the guy who asked how much...I would take $4,300. But no less. Over $10K in the entire swap and a billion man hours!

Sick swap. I was going to do the same swap back in the days. 914 cost a fortune back then. I did like the collectable 914-6 cyclinder. $$$$ Mazda rx3 was way cheaper and faster.

Like i said, my 1st car was a 914. 
I f-in LOVED the thing, and I was replying to the guy who said than an RX-3 is 'way faster' than one.
FWIW, I play around with the 914s, Caymans, and even Elises at Laguna Seca all the time in my RX-7, and I ain't exactly getting smoked. 914s definitely corner well, but they're not the only car out there with perfect 50/50 weigh distribution.

Sory, did not mean to say ANY RX-7. I meant any reasonably stock streetable RX-7. It's comparing a porsche 911 to an RX-7. Only, the 914 is a near perfectly balanced car with the mid-engine setup. Then ad a 911 front suspension setup to that, and well....you get the picture.

do you currently race your RX-7? I read the mods you've done. I bet that thing is fun as hell to drive!

Thanks, man. It's a money pit, but when it runs right...weee!
I don't really RACE the 7, I just take it to the track with whatever club is at Laguna (if they'll let me) since I live so close to the place. The MBR Porsche guys are actually a pretty cool crew.
I LOVE that 914 you've got. From a 914 turned RX7 guy, it's the best of both worlds...And priced right.

my friends dad has one of these, not rotary swapped of course. all it needs are carbs. i wish he would get it running so me and my friend could cruise. anyway, good luck with the sale. that thing is sweet.

Ive got an 85 RX7 13b we oval race and a 914 1.7 FI original motor 914 for the street. What I would like to do now is to put a rotary in my 914 wide body sitting empty with no motor or trans. I know about kennedy, but I was wondering about the mount you have made to attach the rotary to the 914 chassis. Would love to see what you did up close and did you sell your car?
